Do your best




Sadly Bill Cosby ended up being so disappointing- but I love love this parenting clip from The Cosby Show. So true!! Makes me laugh every time. Do your best! Work hard! Expecting great things out of your kids is not cruel, it's called parenting.

ChayLove

Dear Children,

I love your father so much. He is loyal, good, funny, caring, a hard worker, faithful, obedient, and kind. Yes he can raise his voice from time to time but hey, he at least has great expectations for his children! His love goes so deep. 

Your Dad cannot sit still and must be doing something at all times. He will watch a movie at night but if there is something that needs to be done, he will do it. He loves having productive days. 

Our friend and neighbor Sara Geary brought us over a dinner when I had my foot surgery and her glass 9X13 pan was heavily stained from a lot of cooking over the years. Dad cleaned the pan but couldn't get the grease and burn stains off of it. It bothered him that he couldn't get the pan perfectly clean. He scrubbed and scrubbed. I told him to not worry about it but before I knew it, he was on google trying to find out  how to get the burned stains off. He then went to the store and bought oven cleaner. He spent so much time on this pan!! LOL! and guess what! He got that pan sparkling crystal clean. It looked brand new. That is my ChayLove. How lucky for you to be raised in home by such an awesome father. He is an amazing example. I love him. 

Yours Truly, 

Mother


oh and here is a letter he snuck in my shoes. I get up at 5 am to exercise and I was surprised to see this when I woke up.
